Tsunami Posted January 20, 2015 Report Share Posted January 20, 2015 Apparently if neither team owns the rider then it goes on which team declared their full team first !! (New one on me) This is quote from S Star and regarding Redcar having first call on Stuart Robson over Coventry. So looks like you could be in luck Seems sensible. Must be galling, after selecting your team and submitting it, another promotion comes along and wrecks your plans. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roland Posted January 22, 2015 Report Share Posted January 22, 2015 All the above is now a little irrelevant with what has transpired over the last 24 hours. Be interesting to see how this all ends, possibly in tears? We could be most troubled by this so an early announcement would be welcomed from within.

dontforgetthefueltapsbruv Posted January 22, 2015 Report Share Posted January 22, 2015 Would be good to have confirmation from the club as to whether 2 or 3 are involved. Swindon for example have stated Morris is not affected. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swindon for example have stated Morris is not affected. As I expected, Heeps NOT affected, Tungate and Manzares are the two with visa issues confirmed by Mike Bacon.

Good to have that confirmed. Although he has British grandparents he doesn't actually hold a British passport as far as I know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dontforgetthefueltapsbruv Posted January 23, 2015 Report Share Posted January 23, 2015 Was a mentioned on BBC Radio Suffolk sports news. Quoted Chris stating he was confident that Rohan and Gino would be clear to start the season. No mention of Cam so that in itself shows no issue anyway.

Baldyman Posted January 28, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 28, 2015 Isn't it strange that season tickets sales seem to go up every year, but the crowds only seem to get worse. Anyway, no mention of this work shop all promoters have to attend or when it is, cos I wouldn't have thought anything will be changing until these have been attended by all.

CardinalSin Posted January 28, 2015 Report Share Posted January 28, 2015 Still 7 weeks until the Billy Sanders memorial, had enough of the waiting now it's starting to drag a bit like. Can't wait to get back down there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baldyman Posted January 28, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 28, 2015 Me to, I don't care if it's freezing cold or damp, just want to hear and see some speedway racing. Any news anyone heard or read about the improved banking that was mentioned? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCB Posted January 28, 2015 Report Share Posted January 28, 2015 Taken from lovespeedway24 skipper interview: http://www.lovespeedway24.co.uk/teams/ipswich-witches/ipswich_witches_skipper_hawkins_hoping_for_positive_spin_for_riders_like_adam_ellis_over_visa_issues_1_3933574 Makes me laugh. Hawkins has just explained why Manzares shouldn't get a permit. He's basically taking Ellis' team place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZODIAK Posted January 28, 2015 Report Share Posted January 28, 2015 Without getting in to the intricacies of who should and shouldn't qualify for a visa and the qualifying criteria, purely from a fans point of view it would be a great shame in Manzares didn't obtain one as he was excellent entertainment last season. He's certainly been a good addition to the PL. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCB Posted January 28, 2015 Report Share Posted January 28, 2015 although looking how the averages fit it is actually Ritchie that has the place that may have gone to Adam. Ritchie doesn't need a work permit and no justification is needed for his place. But as Ritchie points out, Adam could get a team place if the Aussies don't get in. Well work permits (generally, not just in speedway) are only meant to be given out where there is no suitable EU person able and willing to do the job. So Manzares has a work permit but he shouldn't if Ellis is available. Now Ipswich might be able to argue that due to clashes he can't do the job I guess.

My point was that Gino isnt a direct swap as he is 1.5 higher than Adam so it could be argued Adam couldnt do the job Gino is due for.Now if Ritchie didnt have a place he could argue that case as his average is much closer to Gino.

2ndbendbeerhut Posted January 29, 2015 Report Share Posted January 29, 2015 Pity someone with some common sense and understanding of the English language couldn't take the promoters places then the situation that the riders (and fans) find themselves in wouldn't have happened! Not as though they (the promoters) were not given any warning..... Not just Ipswich but I think its safe to tar all of the current promotions with the same brush!
